Description
Hi, I'm Karen!
*** I'm currently looking for a stay for mid- to late June, preferably in Alberta. ***
A 23-year-old girl from Germany, excited to spend a year working and traveling across beautiful Canada starting in April 2026.
I’m currently on a gap year after studying psychology and working in Human Resources for about 2.5 years in Berlin – a job I really enjoyed, as I’m a very communicative person who loves connecting with people from all walks of life.
I’m looking forward to discovering Canada’s amazing nature, going on lots of hikes, exploring great cafés along the way, learning new skills, and getting to know the country and its people through hands-on work experiences. I’m an organized, reliable and quick learner who gets excited about many things and loves to help out wherever I’m needed.
Looking forward to meeting you!
